Israel – Disaster situation

28 November, 2016

Israel Postal Company Ltd asks us to inform the designated operators of other Union member countries that massive fires in the area around the city of Haifa, intensified by exceptionally strong desert winds, caused fires to spread to the city. The authorities ordered a massive evacuation of residents and closed access to large areas, mainly in the city of Haifa and surrounding areas.

Since 25 November 2016, roads have been closed and transportation stopped (private vehicles, buses and trains) in various parts of the country, causing interruptions and delays in the distribution and collection of mail (letter-post, parcels and EMS).

Israel Postal Company Ltd thanks all member countries for their understanding. It will update designated operators via EmIS once the situation has returned to normal.
